Satan

from Hybris by After Dusk

lyrics

God’s creation before the birth of man
Overwhelming grace and beauty elsewhere not found
Placed on zenith His greatest angels of all
One of whom was the morning star of dawn
Such perfection he spoke directly above
Doxologies his Lord with his entire presence

Oh ancient sunrise, Lord created man
A life in His image, bowed to His Son
Commanded angels bow before
His Son and man whom so much He loved
But Lucifer felt wounded in his pride
His Son and man should surely die
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God
All creation and life is mine to own

Vanity, pride you found your way
Sin inside Lucifer for the first day
Hooked other angels onto his tail
Conquer the Heaven, be God in His place
Be God in His place
War in the heaven as never before
He became Satan raging in war
Sin cannot stand in presence of God
Satan like lightning falling from sky

Oh, it didn’t end this way
He was mad and found his prey
Adam shouldn’t in Heaven stay
Tempted man in everyway

And where could plant his seed
Than Eve’s fragile ego
She’ll fall just like me
I will unleash my evil
Adam follows up
His love will make him fall

For he knows Eve will die
And he will share her fate foreknown
Now you man, will never enter heaven
You’ll die and become sand
My evil in (God’s) creation

Eons later maybe seconds later maybe
Christ took man’s place in this world of temptation
He gave His life in this world to lead man inside the doors
Of heaven and ravens wept for their defeat
The devil who accused our brothers before God
Defeated (shameful) as first enemy of God and man
Archangel you defiled your sanctuaries
